    An ex mobility car of three years old would be a good bet.
    Well maintained & often low mileage.

    Thats what I got this time, beanie - just under 3 years old and was a mobility car.....it has certainly done me well over the years....with trips to the Alps etc as well as all those bloomin ski races!

    I quite fancy something a little less "practical" this time round though - do you reckon I can get the skis in a mini?:rotfl:

    Oooh faberooney! :T I absolutely LOVED Rome, and can't wait to go back - it completely blew my mind. The bus tour is really worth doing - it's like a history lesson.

    If you're at a loose end after the footie - give me a shout as you know that's my neck of the woods ;)

    Would love to give you a shout, but will be with my lovely footie mates.....we may be too much for you all in one go :D

    As for a jag or a Range Rover.....remember that DD starts driving in June.....I need to be able to afford the insurance......oh and to be able to afford to put petrol/diesel in would be a bonus too :rotfl:

    Think DD will be slightly cheaper to insure than DD.
    Prepare to be :eek: :eek:
